About this Mod

Originally, hoppers were crafted with 5 stone and a chest instead of 5 iron and a chest. This mod makes the original recipe an option, as well as giving the player even more options which i thought made sense.

1.0 (1.21.5 and before):
Only adds regular stone hopper recipe

1.1 (1.17-1.21.5):
Adds crafting with deepslate as well as stone

1.1 (before 1.17):
Adds crafting with barrels instead of chests

1.2 (only for 1.17 and later)
All features above

This mod does not replace the vanilla recipe, it just adds more options.
